Ye Bin Won
Masters Candidate, Security Studies Program, Georgetown University
2022, 2023
Ye Bin Won is a masters candidate at Georgetown University’s Security Studies Program studying digital extremist communities. Prior to her masters program, she worked at Moonshot and the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism (GIFCT). Her work examines male supremacist racial politics, antisemitism in Christian nationalist communities, and extremist parent content creators. Ye Bin has shared her work at the Eradicate Hate Global Summit, GNET, the Canada Centre, and more.
The Summit was more than empty words – it made clear that a solution-driven approach is the only way to fight hate. That’s why the working group activities, which are results driven are going to be critical in defeating violent extremism. The Summit brought together the best minds in government, private sector, academia, and civil society. Being surrounded by these experts sparked new ideas – some of which I’ve already implemented or have written about.
